"Didn't we intend to bring stuff back with us?" She asked a bit confused.

"Oh. You mean, bring it back with us. Seemed already pretty much 'stored away', is what I mean", she explained. "Well... we could always bring some of it back with us when we're done if we still have room, but for now I'd say we probably should explore the rest of these ruins, see if there's other loot we should focus on. I can always arrange for another expedition to bring all these barrels and crates back later, given how much there is."

"Alright." Lis said making her way to the next area.

The next door wasn't locked, but it was rotten, and something heavy was held up against it.

She lifted up her skirt, planted her foot against the door and shoved as hard as she could.
12 stones in str to force it open again.

She easily managed to kick the door in, moving what was behind it... namely a HUGE humanoid skeleton torso... which immediately reached out and grabbed her in his hand through the doorframe!
"HEY! LET GO OF LISBETH-SAMA!!" Shampoo hissed as the group of adventurers rushed into the room to fight the gian monster.

"Hands off Bone-Head!" She yelled striking the creature's wrist with her mace. "Mrof Diuqil!"

Lisbeth successfully shattered the giant skeleton's wrist - and ran through its fingers in her watery form, freeing herself - with Shampoo knocking the giant skull back with a kick to the face. The giant monster tried to catch Shampoo next with its remaining hand, but Agnes jumped in to strike it with her sword.

She downright *nailed* the strike directly in the giant skeleton's skull, hitting it JUST right and shattering skull, spine, and more than a few ribs all at once from the chain reaction of her attack's impact! The whole damn thing basically shattered into pieces!
"W... Wow", Agnes stammered.
"Nice work, Lisbeth-sama!!♥" Shampoo said cheerfully.

"You and Shampoo-chan are pretty amazing", Irena said warmly.
"Never seen anyone this strong before", Reeve agreed.
Looking around, they found themselves standing in what appeared to be... catacombs? Dozens, no, hundreds of skeletons resting in alcoves in multiple corridors further in.

"Well... That's certainly not a trap of some kind." Lis said with a smirk.

"Given the welcoming commitee from earlier... what are the chances of all of those skeletons being undead rather than dead?" Reeve suggested, as his dog companion growled.
"I'd say pretty damn good", Yukino agreed. "...So... ruins with buried undead and tons of gunpowder. A long gone necromancer's army barracks?"
"That's if they're long gone", Agnes noted. "This place is dusty, but we haven't checked the main building yet."
"So... what do we think? Should we destroy these skeletons while they're not taking up arms?" the bluenette Rune Knight asked.

"Probably... Looks like we're gonna be using that powder after all." Lisbeth said as she proceeded to craft several bombs and grenades to best take out the boneheads at a distance.
10 stones in Artisan to craft some crude but workable explosives we can freely toss at the spooks to take them out at a distance.
